Chapter 105 All the talents in the world are in my pocket!
When night fell, Liu Cong and the civil and military officials were all present at the Hou Mansion, and all the talents who had passed the examination were summoned.
Soon after everyone arrived, Liu Cong strolled into the hall and slowly sat on the main seat.
"Greetings, my lord!"
"Greetings to the Marquis of Chu!"
Liu Cong was very happy to hear the different names of the talents who passed the exam. After today, they will change their names. After today, these talents will all work for him!
Seeing Liu Cong nodding, Kuai Yue took out Liu Cong's order and read out, "Those who have passed the examination will be appointed as follows."
"Xiang Lang, who ranked first in the civil examination, was appointed as the director of the police station; Wen Ji, who ranked first in the military examination, was appointed as deputy director; Qin Mi, who ranked second in the civil examination, was appointed as the minister of Dali Temple; Dong He, who ranked third in the civil examination, was appointed as the Metropolitan Procuratorate
The president of the academy! Chen Zhen, who ranked fourth in the civil examination, was appointed as the supervisor of Dali Temple! Zhao Lei, who ranked fifth in the civil examination, was appointed as the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate!..."
"The police department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Dali Temple are the chief officials of the three departments, and their positions are the same as those of the six ministers!"
Those whose names were read came out one after another, knelt down and kowtowed to Liu Cong, "I'll wait to thank the Marquis of Chu!"
Although they don't understand these official positions, they do understand the official system of Jingchu. They have the same position as the six ministers. This is a high-ranking official in Jingchu!
Liu Cong laughed and said, "Everyone, from now on you will be the only ministers of humerus. It's time to change your title!"
Everyone understood, "I will thank you Lord!"
Ma Jun and Guan Qiuxing, who were sitting in the crowd, were a little nervous and apprehensive. Everyone had been appointed, but they were the only two who were not mentioned.
While the two were thinking uneasily, Liu Cong spoke up, "Where is Ma Jun, the first in the Gongju, and Guanqiu Xing, the second?"
After hearing this, the two men hurriedly came out and knelt down, "Ma Jun/Guan Qiu is here to pay his respects to the Marquis of Chu."
They have not been appointed by Liu Cong and dare not call Liu Cong their lord.
Liu Cong smiled and nodded at them, "Ma Jun, you have a unique skill in improving crossbows. Can you tell me about it?"
Ma Jun immediately replied, "To report to the Marquis of Chu, I believe that the current crossbows either have one crossbow with one shot, or one crossbow with dozens of shots. The former is less powerful, while the latter is more powerful, but difficult to operate by a single person. So I want to make one.
Develop a crossbow that can fire dozens of arrows at once, not all at once, but one at a time. I am confident that I can develop it!" (Ma Jun also has a stuttering problem, which is not described in this article for the sake of readers.
)
Ma Jun seemed to be afraid that he would not be reused, and he was trembling when he spoke, "I also want to improve the water wheel and catapult. I have certain research results on these."
Liu Cong nodded, and with Ma Jun's anxious expression, he asked Guanqiu Xing, "Wanqiu Xing, you want to improve the plow, how to improve it?"
Guanqiu Xing quickly replied, "I want to make a plow that can be pulled by a single ox horse. At the moment, I only have some ideas, and I can't guarantee success."
Guanqiu Xing was even more nervous. Ma Jun was confident that he could develop such a divine crossbow, but he only had some ideas.
Liu Cong nodded, "I believe that the prosperity of a country lies in its people. If the people are happy, the treasury will be strong, the army will be strong, and the world will be peaceful!"
"However, the way to govern a country cannot be limited to small details. It is also necessary to promote virtue through Confucianism and educate with virtue. To restrain evil through law, to educate and stabilize the place, to create a strong army and stabilize people's livelihood!"
"From the founding of the Han Dynasty to the seventy years of Emperor Xiaowu, we were repeatedly bullied by the barbarians. In the end, we, the Han Dynasty, were able to rise up and defeat the barbarians. It was not only due to Emperor Xiaowu's wisdom and martial prowess, but also to the skillful leadership of the troops by Wei Huo and other generals.
"
"It's because we, the Han army, dare to show our swords and fight! More importantly, our Han army is more skilled than the Huns! Li Ling, with five thousand men, was besieged by tens of thousands of Hu troops. He fought to the end and was captured after exhaustion."
"But his record was five thousand against tens of thousands. He was able to defeat more than 20,000 Hu people and kill 20,000 to 30,000 Hu people!"
"It relies on the wisdom of the Han family! Therefore, Gu does not despise craftsmen, let alone dislike them, but will value them and reuse them! Ma Jun, Guan Qiu Xing, obey orders!"
"I have decided to establish a scientific research institute, with you two as the president and deputy president! The positions are the same as those of the six ministers!"
"Ah!" The two of them were a little surprised. They didn't expect that they could become such high-ranking officials. They hurriedly kowtowed, "Thank you, Lord!"
Liu Cong smiled and nodded. These people have laid the foundation for the future of Jingchu's three generations!
Xiang Lang's nephew Xiang Chong, Dong He's son Dong Yun, Wen Ji's son Wen Qin, Guan Qiu Xing's son Guan Qiu Jian, as well as Deng Ai, Zhou Yuan...
This is the next generation!
Wen Ji’s grandson and Wen Qin’s son Wen Yang, this is the third generation!
All the capable ministers from several generations were taken under his command by Liu Cong!
"Everyone, I congratulate myself tonight and congratulate you too! But let's raise a glass and drink with me!" Liu Cong stood up and raised his glass.
"I'm waiting to congratulate your lord!"
"Hahaha, all the talents in the world have fallen into my lap!" Liu Cong laughed, picked up the jug and filled it with wine, "Drink again!"
"Congratulations, lord!"
"Send the singers and dancers to the palace!"
Inside the Prime Minister's Mansion in Xuchang.
Cao Cao looked at Liu Cong's document announcing the world and sighed, "What a great imperial examination system. Liu Xi has made many achievements and made Sun Ce more powerful!"
Cao Cao suddenly wanted to implement the imperial examination system in the north, but he immediately put an end to this idea. He was opposed to the Han Dynasty, and the imperial examination had a great impact on the aristocratic families.
If even the aristocratic families don't support him, the north he unified will fall apart again.
Yizhou, Chengdu.
Zhang Song and Fazheng, who were not traveling in Yizhou, were sitting in the mansion, talking about Liu Cong and everything about him.
Fazheng's body is thin, but his eyes are full of wisdom and determination, "Yongnian, the Marquis of Chu is a first-rate wise master!"
Zhang Song is a little fat, has a dark face, and is a little ugly. He shook his head disdainfully and said, "The only hero today is Prime Minister Cao!"
Fazheng continued, "The Marquis of Chu defeated him!"
Zhang Song is a staunch supporter of the Cao faction. "Success or failure is not enough to stop the Cao family from dominating the world!"
"Alas!" Fazheng sighed helplessly.
In mid-December, the thirteenth year of Jian'an, there had just been a snowfall in Jingzhou. But the sun was shining brightly in the sky at the moment!
"Drive! Drive! Drive!" In the forest, Liu Cong, dressed in military uniform, drew his bow and set an arrow, "Whoosh!"
A wild fox not far away let out a mournful cry and fell to the ground!
"Okay, okay, okay!" The entourage behind him cheered immediately!
The meaning of these four words is hunting! During the leisure time, the princes went on hunting trips!
The winter in Xiangyang is not as cold as in the north, but it is still so cold that it makes people shiver.
The ground that had just snowed seemed to be covered with a thin blanket. Seeing that the weather was good today, Liu Cong suddenly thought of going out for a safari.
Most of the civil and military officials followed, and even Liu Biao and Mrs. Cai came out to play.
Among Liu Cong's women, only Mi is following. Sun Shangxiang, Cai Jia, and Deng are pregnant! Fan has to take care of little Liu Yuan.
Before leaving, Sun Shangxiang begged to come with him. Unfortunately, Liu Cong would not tolerate him in this situation. She is pregnant, but she still wants to ride a horse?
In comparison, Mrs. Mi was also happy because she had Liu Cong all to herself during these days of Liu Cong's safari! She was envious of those pregnant sisters and looked forward to having children of her own.
Liu Cong also wondered why Mi was not pregnant. He asked Zhang Zhongjing to take a look. There was nothing wrong with Mi's health. It could only be said that she was unlucky.
"Ouch!"
Just when everyone was excited, a tiger roar came! Then in everyone's sight, a colorful tiger quickly leaped out of the forest!
"Herod!" Suddenly, several horses were frightened and started running randomly!
